Visual monitoring

Cameras that work where people cannot go

Marine, crane, helideck and hazardous-area camera systems for offshore and marine assets, supplied as a complete system, or as the components and spares to keep an existing one running.

WISE Group builds camera systems for places that are cold, wet, explosive, moving, or all four. We design the coverage, supply and certify the equipment, integrate it with the video management system and the rest of the monitoring on board, and support it for as long as the asset is in service, including systems we did not originally supply.

What the cameras are watching

The system is specified around the job, not the other way round. These are the jobs we are asked for most.

Crane and blind zone

Lifting areas the operator cannot see from the cab, and the deck below the load.

Helideck

Approach, landing and deck operations, recorded to the applicable standard.

Offshore substations

Unmanned assets where the camera is the only pair of eyes between visits.

Bird and bat detection

Camera feeds as the input to detection and classification, for consent conditions on wind sites. More →

Naval and government vessels

Deck and machinery-space coverage on vessels with their own certification requirements.

Cargo, deck and machinery spaces

Routine situational awareness across the vessel, on one video management system.

The range

The cameras themselves

The Scout range covers most of what an offshore or marine asset needs: fixed and crane cameras in Ex d and non-Ex variants, and Zone 1 PTZ camera stations in 316L stainless housings with thermostatic heating.

Where a project needs something the range does not cover, such as a marine-certified specialist model, a particular IP camera or a thermal unit, we specify and integrate it rather than push the range at it. Monitors, displays, brackets, housings and hybrid cable complete the supply.

Scout systems

Spares for installed systems

WISE Group carries the Scout brand forward, and with it the installations already out there. If you have a Scout system on an asset, it is supported: replacement cameras and housings, brackets, hybrid cable, and the parts that are hardest to find for a system that has been running for a decade.

Upgrades

Analogue and IP on one platform

An ageing analogue installation does not have to be replaced wholesale. Existing analogue cameras and new IP cameras can run together on one platform, so coverage improves a camera at a time rather than in one outage.
